Brampton celebrates National Public Works Week from May 23 to 26 this year.
The event seeks to raise public awareness of the services and activities related to the maintenance and operations of roads, such as road construction, snow removal, traffic signs and traffic signals, as well as awareness of maintenance of public parks, such as pathways, trees and playgrounds.
The week also recognizes the hard work and dedication of public works professionals in our community.
